Full ACK. The NetworkManager is just sensational (just adding some effort to
the VPN section and this tool will become perfect).

The only problem I ran into were the graphical tools of the package
management. If I use them, the zmd process will crash. Then I did the
following:

- Kill all zmd processes
- Delete /var/lib/zypp/cache/*
- rczmd start
- rug sd all (<- actually you have to delete each on its own)
- rug sa --type yum <your-mirror> sl-10.1
- rug sa --type yum <your-mirror> sl-10.1-non-oss
- rug sa --type yum <packman-mirror> packman
- rug sa --type yum <suser-guru-mirror> suser-guru
- rug sa --type yum <update-mirror> sl-10.1-updates
- rug sub -a

Afterwards, everything worked as long as I do not use any graphical mono tool.
Even installing packages with YaST works. If the updater shows the
exclamation mark, I use "rug update" to update the system. Only problem with
rug: It's extremly slow. Installing a small package takes about 3-4 minutes.
Installing is actually not slow but preparing and finishing is.

BTW, I updated from 10.0 to 10.1 using YaST with all repos mentioned.
